A Plate to Illustrate the Slime Moulds. — A portion of a plas- 

 modiuvi highly magnified, and a single species more or less magnified of 

 each of the common genera of Myxomycetcs or Slime Moulds, are given. 

 These are diagrammaiic figures mostly adapted from plates in Macbride's 

 North American Slime Moulds. 



I'iG. 112. CoL-LYn'-i-A rad-i-ca'-ta. a .skctcli sliowinp alinonnal growth of this 

 common cdililc Col-lyb'-i;.; the speciiiicns were found on a rotten h)R, but the "root" 

 was unablo to pcrctralc the hard, less-rotten portions. In one case tlie "root" portion 

 was not at all developed, as shown in Ihc middle specimen, but a more energetic plant 

 (sketch to the left) turned its ecmrse at ri^lit angles and grew to the usual length. A 

 distorted cap is sliown in the plant sketched at the right. These were collected near 

 Sandusky, Ohio, last year. 



The Glossary as a Sei'akate I^ampiilet. — U has been decided to re- 

 print the Mycological Glossary which has ;ippcarcd on successive pages in 

 this lluLLETi.v. A serviceable paper will be used — and tlie expense involved 

 in this matter requires that the price per copy be placed at 2.") cents. Begin- 

 ners, amateurs, and students of Mushrooms will doubtless find this little 

 dictionary of some advantage.
